Sundried Tomato and Goat Cheese Nachos

Fried Wonton Chips with Parmesan Cheese

Sundried Tomato and Goat Cheese Nacho

Terelli's is one of my favorite restaurants

here in Dallas

They have these amazing

 "Italchos - Italian Nachos"

They make homemade pizza chips

&

you get to choose your own toppings

I've been dying to make these at home

but I did not want to try to make

my own homemade pizza chips

 I decided to try wonton wrappers

I tried baking them first, but it just was not crunchy enough

I do not like to fry food, but

I really wanted a "chip" for my italian nachos

Once I fried them in canola oil,

I think the angels started singing

These are delicious

There isn't really a fancy recipe for this

Just buy a package of wonton wrappers

(usually in the produce section of most grocery stores by the tofu)

Fill the bottom of a skillet with canola oil, heat on medium high

Cut the wonton wrappers into triangles

Once the oil is hot, place them in the skillet 

(do not overcrowd)

Cook until just slightly golden and crispy

Drain them on a paper towel

Sprinkle with grated fresh Parmesan Cheese

(taste if you want)

Then add the toppings of your choice:

(pepperoni, prociutto, pancetta, bacon, meatball, salami, shrimp, anchovies, artichokes, roasted garlic, capers, sundried tomatoes, onions, mushrooms,spinach, jalapenos, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, ricotta, feta, goat cheese, basil, parsley, pine nuts, etc)

Broil for about 2-3 minutes - watch closely

You just want the cheese you choose to melt!

Next time, I'm going to add proscuitto and roasted garlic

What are your favorite italian toppings?  

Peaches with Basil

All I can say is yummy!

I sliced a peach- drizzled it with honey - chopped up some fresh basil ( can you believe my basil is thriving in this heat? )- then topped it off with some goat cheese

Cheese

Another thing that I ♥ ...

.... cheese

and I ♥ Texas

and I ♥ companies from Texas

and I ♥ heat

not Texas heat

but jalapeno heat

and I ♥ the name of this company

CheesyGirl Cheese Co.

because I'm cheesy

and I'm a girl

and I ♥ the name of this cheese

because HOTTIE is cool 

this cheese is soft chevre*  spread 

similar to cream cheese 

made in Texas 

with flecks of  jalapenos

YUM!

(*- chevre is cheese made from goat's milk)

You can find this cheese at Whole Foods and Central Market (yet another plug for one of my fav-O-rite stores)
